Dear Hopefulinpa, I hear your fears and prayers. As a biomom in reunion I think about D's amom a lot. One of the things I love about D is that he clearly loves S and she is his mom. Our relationship is strong and good, but not the same as the one with S. (This actually makes me happy, since that's what I hoped for him when I placed him for adoption -- I wanted him to parents who loved him and whom he loves.)

I think it can help all of us if we can remember that love is not like a pie: love expands - the more we love, the more love we have to share. If we can keep from making our children feel they have to choose between us, we will all benefit.
